Approval and Promulgation of Air 

Quality Implementation Plans; 

Michigan; Redesignation of the DetroitAnn Arbor Area to Attainment of the 

1997 Annual Standard and the 2006 

24-Hour Standard for Fine Particulate 

Matter 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: EPA is approving, under the 

Clean Air Act (CAA), the state of 

Michigan’s request to redesignate the 

Detroit-Ann Arbor nonattainment area 

(Livingston, Macomb, Monroe, Oakland, 

St. Clair, Washtenaw, and Wayne 

Counties) to attainment for the 1997 

annual and 2006 24-hour national 

ambient air quality standards (NAAQS 

or standard) for fine particulate matter 

(PM2.5). On July 5, 2011, the Michigan 

Department of Environmental Quality 

(MDEQ) submitted a request for EPA to 

redesignate the Detroit-Ann Arbor 

Michigan nonattainment area. EPA 

determined that the Detroit-Ann Arbor 

area has attained the 1997 annual and 

2006 24-hour PM2.5 standard, and 

proposed on July 2, 2013, to approve 

Michigan’s request to redesignate the 

area. EPA is taking final action today on 

that proposal. EPA also is taking final 

action in this rulemaking on several 

related proposals. EPA is approving, as 

a revision to the Michigan state 

implementation plan (SIP), the state’s 

plan for maintaining the 1997 annual 

and 2006 24-hour PM2.5 NAAQS in the 

area through 2023. Finally, EPA finds 

adequate and is approving Michigan’s 

nitrogen oxides (NOX) and PM2.5 Motor 

Vehicle Emission Budgets (MVEBs) for 

2023 for the Detroit-Ann Arbor area. 

EPA, therefore, grants Michigan’s 

request to redesignate the Detroit-Ann 

Arbor area to attainment for the 1997 

annual and 2006 24-hour PM2.5

standards. 

DATES: Effective Date: This rule will be 

effective August 29, 2013. 

ADDRESSES: EPA has established a 

docket for this action under Docket

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Throughout this document whenever 

‘‘we,’’ ‘‘us,’’ or ‘‘our’’ is used, we mean 

EPA. This supplementary information 

section is arranged as follows: 

I. What is the background for the actions? 

II. What actions is EPA taking? 

III. What is EPA’s response to comments? 

IV. Why is EPA taking these actions? 

V. Final Action 

VI. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews 

I. What is the background for the 

actions? 

On July 5, 2011, MDEQ submitted its 

request to redesignate the Detroit-Ann 

Arbor nonattainment area to attainment 

for the 1997 annual and 2006 24-hour 

PM2.5 NAAQS, and for EPA approval of 

the state’s SIP revision containing a 

maintenance plan for the area. On July 

2, 2013, (78 FR 39654), EPA proposed 

approval of Michigan’s redesignation 

request and plan for maintaining the 

1997 annual and 2006 24-hour PM2.5

NAAQS. EPA also proposed approval of 

Michigan’s MVEBs for PM2.5 and NOX

for 2023 for the area. Additional 

background for today’s action is set 

forth in EPA’s July 2, 2013, proposed 

rulemaking. 

II. What actions is EPA taking? 

EPA has determined that the entire 

Detroit-Ann Arbor area is attaining the 

1997 annual and 2006 24-hour PM2.5

standards (78 FR 39654) and that the 

Detroit-Ann Arbor area has met the 

requirements for redesignation under 

section 107(d)(3)(E) of the CAA. Thus, 

EPA is approving the requests from the 

state of Michigan to change the legal 

designation of the Detroit-Ann Arbor 

area from nonattainment to attainment 

for the 1997 annual and 2006 24-hour 

PM2.5 NAAQS. EPA is also taking 

several additional actions related to 

Michigan’s PM2.5 redesignation 

requests, as discussed below. 

EPA is approving Michigan’s PM2.5

maintenance plan for the Detroit-Ann 

Arbor area as a revision to the Michigan 

SIP (such approval being one of the 

CAA criteria for redesignation to 

attainment status). The maintenance 

plan is designed to keep the Detroit-Ann 

Arbor area in attainment of the 1997 

annual and 2006 24-hour PM2.5 NAAQS 

through 2023. 

EPA also finds adequate and is 

approving Michigan’s 2023 primary 

PM2.5 and NOX MVEBs for the DetroitAnn Arbor area. These MVEBs will be 

mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with RULES

Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 168 / Thursday, August 29, 2013 / Rules and Regulations 53273 

used in future transportation conformity 

analyses for the area. 

III. What is EPA’s response to 

comments? 

EPA received two sets of supportive 

comments on its proposed rulemaking 

which have been added to the docket. 

IV. Why is EPA taking these actions? 

EPA has determined that the DetroitAnn Arbor area has attained the 1997 

annual and 2006 24-hour PM2.5 NAAQS. 

EPA has also determined that all other 

criteria have been met for the 

redesignation of the Detroit-Ann Arbor 

area from nonattainment to attainment 

of the 1997 annual and 2006 24-hour 

PM2.5 NAAQS and for approval of 

Michigan’s maintenance plan for the 

area. See CAA sections 107(d)(3)(E) and 

175A. The detailed rationale for EPA’s 

findings and actions is set forth in the 

proposed rulemaking of July 2, 2013 (78 

FR 39654). 

V. Final Action 

EPA is determining that the DetroitAnn Arbor area has attained the 

standards and that the area meets the 

requirements for redesignation to 

attainment of that standard under 

sections 107(d)(3)(E) and 175A of the 

CAA. Thus, EPA is granting the request 

from Michigan to change the legal 

designation of the Detroit-Ann Arbor 

area from nonattainment to attainment 

for the 1997 annual and 2006 24-hour 

PM2.5 NAAQS. EPA is also approving 

Michigan’s 1997 annual and 2006 24- 

hour PM2.5 maintenance plan for the 

Detroit-Ann Arbor area as a revision to 

the SIP because the plan meets the 

requirements of section 175A of the 

CAA. Finally, EPA finds adequate and 

is approving Michigan’s 2023 primary 

PM2.5 and NOX MVEBs for the DetroitAnn Arbor area. These MVEBs will be 

used in future transportation conformity 

analyses for the area after the effective 

date for the adequacy finding and 

approval. 

In accordance with 5 U.S.C. 553(d), 

EPA finds there is good cause for this 

action to become effective immediately 

upon publication. This is because a 

delayed effective date is unnecessary 

due to the nature of a redesignation to 

attainment, which relieves the area from 

certain CAA requirements that would 

otherwise apply to it. The immediate 

effective date for this action is 

authorized under both 5 U.S.C. 

553(d)(1), which provides that 

rulemaking actions may become 

effective less than 30 days after 

publication if the rule grants or 

recognizes an exemption or relieves a 

restriction, and section 553(d)(3), which 

allows an effective date less than 30 

days after publication as otherwise 

provided by the agency for good cause 

found and published with the rule. The 

purpose of the 30-day waiting period 

prescribed in section 553(d) is to give 

affected parties a reasonable time to 

adjust their behavior and prepare before 

the final rule takes effect. Today’s rule, 

however, does not create any new 

regulatory requirements such that 

affected parties would need time to 

prepare before the rule takes effect. 

Rather, today’s rule relieves Michigan of 

various requirements for the DetroitAnn Arbor area. For these reasons, EPA 

finds good cause under 5 U.S. C. 

553(d)(3) for this action to become 

effective on the date of publication of 

this action. 

VI. Statutory and Executive Order 

Reviews 

Under the CAA, redesignation of an 

area to attainment and the 

accompanying approval of the 

maintenance plan under CAA section 

107(d)(3)(E) are actions that affect the 

status of geographical area and do not 

impose any additional regulatory 

requirements on sources beyond those 

required by state law. A redesignation to 

attainment does not in and of itself 

impose any new requirements, but 

rather results in the application of 

requirements contained in the CAA for 

areas that have been redesignated to 

attainment. Moreover, the Administrator 

is required to approve a SIP submission 

that complies with the provisions of the 

Act and applicable Federal regulations. 

42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a). 

Thus, in reviewing SIP submissions, 

EPA’s role is to approve state choices, 

provided that they meet the criteria of 

the CAA. Accordingly, this action 

merely approves state law as meeting 

Federal requirements and does not 

impose additional requirements beyond 

those imposed by state law. For these 

reasons, this action: 

• Is not a ‘‘significant regulatory 

action’’ subject to review by the Office 

of Management and Budget under 

Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, 

October 4, 1993); 

• does not impose an information 

collection burden under the provisions 

of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 

U.S.C. 3501 et seq.); 

• is certified as not having a 

significant economic impact on a 

substantial number of small entities 

under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 

U.S.C. 601 et seq.); 

• does not contain any unfunded 

mandate or significantly or uniquely 

affect small governments, as described 

in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act 

of 1995 (Pub. L. 104–4); 

• does not have Federalism 

implications as specified in Executive 

Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 

1999); 

• is not an economically significant 

regulatory action based on health or 

safety risks subject to Executive Order 

13045 (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997); 

• is not significant regulatory action 

subject to Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 

28355, May 22, 2001); 

• is not subject to requirements of 

Section 12(d) of the National 

Technology Transfer and Advancement 

Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272 note) because 

application of those requirements would 

be inconsistent with the CAA; and, 

• does not provide EPA with the 

discretionary authority to address, as 

appropriate, disproportionate human 

health or environmental effects, using 

practicable and legally permissible 

methods, under Executive Order 12898 

(59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994). 

In addition, this final rule does not 

have tribal implications as specified by 

Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, 

November 9, 2000), because the SIP is 

not approved to apply in Indian country 

located in the Commonwealth, and EPA 

notes that it will not impose substantial 

direct costs on tribal governments or 

preempt tribal law. 

The Congressional Review Act, 5 

U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the Small 

Business Regulatory Enforcement 

Fairness Act of 1996, generally provides 

that before a rule may take effect, the 

agency promulgating the rule must 

submit a rule report, which includes a 

copy of the rule, to each House of the 

Congress and to the Comptroller General 

of the United States. EPA will submit a 

report containing this action and other 

required information to the U.S. Senate, 

the U.S. House of Representatives, and 

the Comptroller General of the United 

States prior to publication of the rule in 

the Federal Register. A major rule 

cannot take effect until 60 days after it 

is published in the Federal Register. 

This action is not a ‘‘major rule’’ as 

defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2). 

Under section 307(b)(1) of the CAA, 

petitions for judicial review of this 

action must be filed in the United States 

Court of Appeals for the appropriate 

circuit by October 28, 2013. Filing a 

petition for reconsideration by the 

Administrator of this final rule does not 

affect the finality of this action for the 

purposes of judicial review nor does it 

extend the time within which a petition 

for judicial review may be filed, and 

shall not postpone the effectiveness of 

such rule or action. This action may not 

be challenged later in proceedings to

I. What is the background for the 

actions? 

On December 2, 2011 (76 FR 75464), 

EPA issued a final determination that 

the Parkersburg-Marietta and Wheeling 

nonattainment areas were attaining the 

1997 annual PM2.5 standard. 

On February 29, 2012, Ohio submitted 

its request to redesignate the Ohio 

portion of Parkersburg-Marietta 

(Washington County) to attainment of 

the 1997 annual PM2.5 standard. On 

April 16, 2012, Ohio submitted its 

request to redesignate the Ohio portion 

of Wheeling (Belmont County) to 

attainment of the 1997 annual PM2.5

standard. These redesignation requests 

are based on 2008–2010 monitoring data 

showing attainment of the 1997 annual 

PM2.5 standard. 

On November 30, 2012 (77 FR 71383, 

77 FR 71371), EPA published notices 

proposing to approve Ohio’s requests to 

redesignate the Ohio portions of the 

Parkersburg-Marietta and Wheeling 

areas to attainment of the 1997 annual 

PM2.5 standard. These rulemaking 

notices also proposed to approve Ohio’s 

PM2.5 maintenance plan, 2005 NOX, 

SO2, and primary PM2.5 emission 

inventories for Washington and Belmont 

Counties, and proposed to determine 

the insignificance of the 2022 NOX and 

PM2.5 MVEBs for Washington and 

Belmont Counties. These rulemaking 

notices also proposed to determine that 

the Ohio portions of the ParkersburgMarietta and Wheeling areas continue to 

attain the 1997 PM2.5 annual standard 

based on certified 2009–2011 air quality 

data. For each proposed action, one 

supportive comment was received from 

the Ohio Utility Group, and no adverse 

comments were received. 

On April 30, 2013, Ohio provided 

ammonia and VOC emissions 

inventories to EPA to supplement the 

February 29, 2012, and April 16, 2012,
